Package : gnome-boxes
Version : 3.30.3-2+deb10u1
CVE ID :
Debian Bug :
It has been found that the update of freerdp2 (see DLA-3606-1) exposed a
bug in gnome-boxes, which breaks RDP connections with the symtoms of
hangs and black screens.
Note: sha256 is now used instead of sha1 to fingerprint certificates. This will
invalidate all hosts in FreeRDP known_hosts2 file, $HOME/.config/freerdp/known_hosts2.
In case of problems with the connection, try removing that file.
For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
3.30.3-2+deb10u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your gnome-boxes packages.
